30 Days of Devotion: Ignorance is Not Bliss

Let’s begin.

We only think ignorance is bliss. In reality, it’s just comfort. It’s what we know. It’s what we slink back to after we have our illusions ripped away. We think it’s our friend, but it’s a false friend. Ignorance is not bliss. It is delusion, and in the end, delusions bring only suffering. I can strip those delusions away. I can’t promise you comfort, but it won’t hurt if you stand still and let it happen. And it will happen. It happens to us all.
